Haha.. Adam was my favorite too. I used to e-mail him with a must have list when I wanted to go out to dinner, and he would fire back 3-4 spot on recommendations every time, regardless of the stipulations presented.

Great little bakery in there too, I grew up in that neighborhood, sure wish that place had been there back then. Fry's has done a good job across the street with their Mexican style cold deli and ice cream.

I stopped by Umi yesterday. There was only a sign on the door, some empty cartons of take out and the kind of briefcase used by wine reps. No people. No movement. I love gossip as much as the next person but that's all yelp is about.....gossip.

You make a good point, that it might be interesting, but truth be told, that whole "Crazy restaurant owner, goes nuts, does fake reviews on Yelp and Reddit", has kind of been played out since the Amy's debacle.
